Abstract

A terminal includes: a control unit configured to assume that there are a scheduling cell and a scheduled cell in multi-carrier scheduling by single control information; and a reception unit configured to receive the single control information from the scheduling cell. The reception unit receives a plurality of scheduled cells based on the single control information, and the control unit determines whether or not an unlicensed frequency cell can be configured as the scheduled cell.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A terminal comprising:
 a control unit configured to assume that there are a scheduling cell and a scheduled cell in multi-carrier scheduling by single control information; and   a reception unit configured to receive the single control information from the scheduling cell, wherein   the reception unit receives a plurality of scheduled cells based on the single control information, and   the control unit determines whether or not an unlicensed frequency cell can be configured as the scheduled cell.   
     
     
         2 . The terminal as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein
 the control unit determines that the unlicensed frequency cell cannot be configured as the scheduled cell.   
     
     
         3 . The terminal as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein
 the control unit determines that the unlicensed frequency cell can be configured as the scheduled cell in a case where the unlicensed frequency cell satisfies a specific condition.   
     
     
         4 . The terminal as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein
 the specific condition is a condition that there is a capability of configuring the unlicensed frequency cell as a scheduled cell.   
     
     
         5 . A base station comprising:
 a control unit configured to assume that there are a scheduling cell and a scheduled cell in multi-carrier scheduling by single control information; and   a transmission unit configured to transmit the single control information from the scheduling cell, wherein   the transmission unit transmits a plurality of scheduled cells based on the single control information, and   the control unit determines whether or not an unlicensed frequency cell can be configured as the scheduled cell.   
     
     
         6 . A communication method performed by a terminal, the communication method comprising:
 assuming that there are a scheduling cell and a scheduled cell in multi-carrier scheduling by single control information;   receiving the single control information from the scheduling cell;   receiving a plurality of scheduled cells based on the single control information; and   determining whether or not an unlicensed frequency cell can be configured as the scheduled cell.
